Abstract

The NA61/SHINE experiment aims to discover the critical point of strongly interacting matter and study properties of the onset of deconfinement. These goals are to be achieved by performing a twodimensional phase diagram (T - {\mu}B) scan measurements of hadron production as a function of collision energy and system size. With its large acceptance and good particle identification NA61/SHINE also performs detailed and precise particle production measurements for the T2K, Pierre Auger Observatory and KASCADEGrande experiments. This contribution summarizes current status and future plans as well as presents the first physics results of the NA61/SHINE experiment.
